Thank Jesus! Here is actually a deliberate B-movie that is good but above all fun to watch.Most problem with modern B-movies is that they are all too aware of themselves, are are too forced with all of its B-movie ingredients. This movie just doesn't seem to care about what it is or who it is going to appeal to. It's just doing his own thing, which makes this movie an odd but fun viewing experience.It's still deliberately a B-movie though and made to look deliberately bad and silly at times, without it ever coming across as forced. You can't even call it a B-movie at times but more of an amateur student-film. It has some deliberately bad fighting and gory sequences in it, awkward musical moments, bad writing and the entire movie is dubbed, to make the entire movie seem even more cheap and amateur like than it already was. The movie really manages well to create its own style and look. There is no other movie like "Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter" really, or anything that can even be remotely compared to it.Yes, it's a pretty weird movie and by no means a great one or even a well made one. It's very random with its story and everything that is happening in it and more than often it really isn't making any sense. But I actually loved this movie for not making any sense with its story, characters and events. It was what made this movie such a fun one throughout and you don't have to think or worry about anything and simply enjoy the movie for what it is. I don't even think it was really intended to have a story in it. Just a couple of guys and girls wanting to have a good time and make the movie they would all enjoy watching. It explains why the movie has Jesus, Kung-Fu fighting, vampires, a wrestler and lesbians in it. I don't think any of them will move on to do great things within the movie industry but at least they with this movie delivered one they can look back at with pride and nothing but good feelings, I would imaging, since this movie most likely was a whole lot of fun to make.Thank you Christ!7/10 http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/

There is a difference between an honest b-movie and completely amateur crap. Watch this movie.It will assist you in learning to know the difference. I am sure that a bunch of pals had a great time making this film. I am equally certain that there is no need to inflict it upon a wider world. My suspicion is that this was done for a bet to see if people could be persuaded to buy it, it is so consciously bad that it is impossible to see it in any other light. Other reviewers have suggested a "good enough, lets cut and move on" mentality, I suggest that not even a brain-dead monkey could view 90% of this as good enough. I dread to think what was left on the cutting-room floor.

It's obvious that a lot of love went into this film. The weird cheap production actually added to it. I can't say I've ever gone in for B-movies before but I thought this one was brilliant.Highlights for me included Mary Magnum, the good Transvestite (!) and the entrance of Santos. In fact, just Santos in general, he was excellent.As someone else mentioned, the actor playing Jesus Christ is actually very good. I loved the way that Jesus was originally called into action by the punk priest whilst apparently baptising people. The writers clearly knew their bible-stories, apparently - and so a great deal of the film comes across as intelligent and well thought-out, cf. the sermon at the end.All in all, there are so many fantastic ideas and pleasant surprises in this film. Really enjoyable.

This movie is awesome. Done with an extreme low budget, to look like it is from the 70's, it is the most entertaining and funny kung fu/vampire/horror/comedy/musical about Jesus ever made! The plot follows as lesbian vampires are sprouting up all over town, the priests call upon Jesus to help. These vampires can also walk in Daylight. Jesus comes to town and kicks some vampire butt! But the vampires are sometimes too much for him, so Jesus asks for help from wrester Santos. They all team up and make one of the most entertaining and fun films ever. The coolest thing is, it looks like this movie was made in the 70's, with some bad voice dubbing, and some horrible looking effects (that are also funny). There is even a cameo by God, and Virgin Mary! This movie isn't too offensive, not nearly as you think it'd be. Definitely the best religious film ever. See it now!
